Great for these types of students

Health enthuisiasts

Bang for the buck

This is why I need a scholarship to go here.

What to do for fun

The students have adjustment parties, where they practice chiropractic procedures on each other, such as cracking each other backs and necks.

Food and Dining

The food is nutritional and delicious. After all, the university is focused towards the health and wellness of the public community.

Dorm Life

I haven't seen the dorms but I heard that a girl, who lived in a single unit, installed an infrared sauna in her dorm, so I'm guessing that the size of the dorms is pretty large.

Academic Rigor

The faculty and staff are very knowledgeable and give students hands-on experience in and outside the classroom.

Tips for prospective students

Make sure you really want to study bio-medical sciences. It is not a school for the indecisive individual.

I have been working with a current student who attends this school, and the program seems very thorough. I also like the fact that it is an accredited school that is nationally recognized as a great establishment for superior education. The classes are designed in trimesters, and the school seems to actually want their students to graduate on time.

This is a joke, right? There are a couple vending machines and that is it.

Dorm Life

Nasty.

Tips for prospective students

Go somewhere else.

This school is terrible. I spent an entire weekend doing a continuing educational seminar here and did not receive credit for one of the days because the assistant was late and the sign in form was put out after we were already in the classroom. When I contacted the school, to let them know of the discrepancy, they said there was no way to verify my attendance-of course they had no problems charging my credit card for all the hours. They just want your money- Stay away!

There are many opportunities for students to get involved, listen to speakers, learn more (added programs), and relax (when possible).

Bang for the buck

A little too costly especially when you will have to start your own business AFTER graduation.

What to do for fun

There are many groups and activities for students on campus.

Food and Dining

There is no cafeteria on campus. There are vending machines and options in the bookstore, but it is advised that students use Roosevelt Rd. to find food opportunities.

Academic Rigor

High-standards are demanded throughout all of the programs.

Tips for prospective students

N.D. Program = $18,100 per trimester (on-campus) D.C. Progam = $17,305 per trimester (on-campus) Acupuncture Program = $12,875 per trimester (on-campus) Oriental Medicine Program = $12,875 per trimester (on-campus) Make sure to note prerequisites required or enroll in their prerequisite program on site ($11,480 per trimester on campus). Students in the Prerequisite Program who have applied to the DC or ND degree program receive a 50% tuition discount for courses required for admission. Tuition discounts are applied after the first week.

In three sentences

If you enroll full-time here, it will be 20-28 credit hours a semester to complete their doctoral programs. The campus is clean and close together. Hands-on experience matched with high demands.

Be willing to take your studies into your own hands and become responsible for yourself.

Tips for prospective students

Just believe in who you are and proceed from there.

In three sentences

This university encompasses all aspects of health in the natural realm. Not only do they focus on learned sciences, they also focus on application of the learning involved with 1000s of years of tested results, and compassion that's missing in the traditional conventional model of healthcare surrounding the US today. It's a great place to learn and be a part of!

If you want to be a chiropractor this is the school for you however if you want to be a naturopathic physician then you really should go to an ND school. The acupuncture and oriental medicine program is very good however it is a chiropractic school and you are reminded of that everyday.

What to do for fun

The area is very suburban but the people are nice

Tips for prospective students

You have to come ready to study and do the work because it is not easy.

In three sentences

I fun and challenging place to learn. Health conscious students and faculty who believe in helping others.
